Building a T-Trak module | Installing signs and poles

That’s not a 5/16″ (50 scale inches) drill bit David is using to drill the holes for the power line poles. I think he meant to say a 5/64″ (12.5 scale inches) or 5/32″ (25 scale inches).
Those wood posts for the Blair signs look awfully fragile. Also, I don’t recall seeing a traffic sign with a wood post. I like to use .02″ or .025″ steel music wire for traffic sign posts and glue it to the sign using CA.
Stop sign seemed a little high. Could be one foot or maybe 1.5 feet lower. But these additions definitely contribute realism to a scene.
